[PATCH 04/15] tty: n_tty: invert the condition in copy_from_read_buf()

From: Jiri Slaby (SUSE)
Date: Tue Sep 19 2023 - 04:52:19 EST


Make "no numbers available" a fast quit from the function. And do the
heavy work outside the 'if'. This makes the code more understandable and
conforming to the common kernel coding style.
